    This is just sad, now that its in vogue to blame republicans for everything, I see it on slashdot too.

    pssst I heard they feasted on 41 unaborted babies while they were voting. You know thats why they hate abortion right? so they can eat the babies!

    Wanna make it political? Offer some solutions, "we're not like them" simply doesn't work. If I wanted partizan hate mongering I would listen to Rush Limbaugh the mean, and NPR the condescending.

    I did NOT RTFA, because I'm sure its just like the '.xxx' domain, which, as a *gasp* Christian, I love. But the group I get lumped in with hate. But its only really useful if its enforced. Guess who gets to play bad guy when that needs to happen? So is it better to take lashings for made up reasons? or for being 'fascists'.

    Who cares, in the end they're all crooks for one reason or another.
